Giuliana Rancic has issued a public apology to actress and singer, Zendaya Coleman and fans after she remarked on her Oscars Red Carpet look, which included not only a stylish gown, but also long dreadlocks.

According to an earlier report by the Inquisitr, Giuliana Rancic commented on Zendaya’s dreadlocks while talking about the actress and singer’s look for the 2015 Oscars Red Carpet during the post Oscars episode of E!’s Fashion Police. “I feel like she smells like patchouli oil. Or weed. Maybe weed?” said Rancic.

While Fashion Police does indeed poke fun at celebrities for all of their fashion choices, Giuliana Rancic’s specific comments regarding Zendaya’s dreadlocks sent many, including the singer, into an uproar.

According to another report by the Inquisitr, even fellow Fashion Police host Kelly Osbourne was upset by her co-hosts comments. She even took to twitter to express her feelings, especially when rumors began spreading that she was the one that made the weed comment about Zendaya.
